Lois Anne is an artist – a maker of poems and objects – who has maintained her studio in downtown Rockland Maine since 1984. Lois received a BFA in Visual Art from Alfred University and an MFA in Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts. Her poems have appeared in numerous anthologies, the most recent being ENOUGH! Poems of Resistance and Protest, Littoral Press, 2020.
Your support gives me encouragement as I write and post for thirty days this month, increasing my inspiration to do this marathon.
Tupelo Press provides the canvas; as part of a cohort of eight brave poets, I bring my words as we all write & post thirty poems in thirty days - some first drafts, some more polished/edited, and submitted as we wish. This is all so Tupelo Press can keep publishing exquisite and diverse voices that might never be heard otherwise.
Every dollar gives me incentive to write more every day, as it helps the press place more poems out in the world, more voices out in the world, expanding the literary canon to include more Women, Black, Indigenous, Persons of Color, and LGBTQ writers. Help me to help this distinguished press. Please give today. Thank you!!
